That is true, besides, the carnage might be more interesting with a yard o' margarita in hand. Depending on how soon you wanted to do this, you might try to catch an off-time [as in, not spring break for colleges, new year's eve, etc.] Also, TheBoy and I discovered that hotels [at least in March when we'll be there] were often $50 a night on weekdays and triple that for the weekend. Also, you might look into staying off-strip, as rooms on the strip are likely to be a little pricier. We ended up with a room at the Plaza for the aforementioned $50 a night. Which means we're going to be right at the end of the Fremont Experience.

I love old Vegas! I'd much rather stay on the old strip than the new. Too much walking on the new, I might spill my yard o' margarita! And if you want to see the new strip you can take one of those trollies just about any where, like the 99 cent shrimp cocktail joint. HA!

I'm more than willing [obviously] to share what I know from planning my trip, plus TheBoy lived there for several summers so I've got a wealth of Vegas-y knowledge in my house. He did manage the yard o' margarita on one of his more recent trips, as well as the better part of a 3 pound burrito [the boys are threatening to try this again this trip!] and he ended up not really being able to walk from the fullness and the alcohol.
